Hi everyone, here are the Local History Photos of the week!

(Click on the photos for a larger view)

Photo 1: Park Hotel, Tioga Pennsylvania

The only real mystery about this photo, of the Park Hotel in Tioga, P.A. — is what year was it taken? Before the streets were paved that much is certain!

Photo 2: A Local Baseball Game

Our second photo for this week shows a local baseball game. And as with the Park Hotel photo, when the photo was taken is a mystery. However, I’m hoping someone will recognize where the photo was taken!

Photo 3: A Family Reunion? 

Our third photo for this week is a group shot, The photo is clear enough to recognize people but there is no info on when and where this photo was taken. So if you recognize anyone in the photo let us know!

Have a great week,

Linda, SSCL

Library Local History/Creation Station Resources:

Don’t forget at the library you can scan your photos and slides to create digital family albums and slideshows; and even use one of the Circut machines, and other Creation Station equipment, to help you create a special paper family history album or calendar for 2017!

And here’s your weekly reminder that at the library you can scan your photos and slides to create digital family albums and slideshows; and even use one of the Circut machines, and other Creation Station equipment, to help you create a special paper family history album.

Also of note, we have the local paper, at times called the Corning Leader, Corning Journal or Corning Daily Journal, on microfilm from 1840 to the present — so you can visit the library and research local history and your family tree if you wish!

And…

If you find any old photos of the Corning area that you don’t know what to do with – you can always donate them to the library! We’re happy to add new photos to our Local History Photo Archive.
